Abstract To overcome delay, the United Kingdom has introduced the time limit for case hearing since the family justice reform in 2011. The time limit is 26 weeks. The reform works well, but it gives rise to controversies and problems as well. The time limit for case hearing has always been a focus in the family justice reform. As Chinas family justice reform is furthered, some argue for extending the time limit or setting up a more flexible time limit. In this case, the time limit for case hearing in British justice reform can be learned and borrowed to a certain extent. In the family justice reform in China, it is better to refine or specify the time limit rather than extending or changing it to facilitate the work of family justice reform and protect the rights of the parties; at the same time, the establishment of the case management system, and the implementation of the relevant regulations and the time limit of case hearing could be conducive to the family justice reform and realize the goal of reform.
